Long [long] story short, we came back to it after seeing a dozen more homes and knew it was one that we needed to invest some TLC and $$ into, but saw its potential. Well, my husband saw its potential - like he does in everything and everyone. He's a gem. Did I mention his dad owns a tile/flooring business? Awesome, right?
That seems like a long time ago. We've had two babies in this home already! And if you know me, you know that change is my best friend. Let's not even talk about how many shower curtains I've cycled through.
My decorating style and taste always changes, but I feel like I've landed in a general area. Thanks be to Pinterest and the infinite ideas and projects it allows me to hand over to my husband (ha) we really feel like we're finally making it a home.
I need to give you a little taste of what we initially signed up for. It's only fair.
I know, I know. What's not to love? :)
We took down that random pillar that you see to the left of the photo. We painted, put in wood floors (swoon) and I redecorated...or something. This was a long time ago and that house was so cluttered when we first saw it. I couldn't help but error on the side of simple. Or bare.
See that table? That's an $80 goodwill find! These past few weeks, my husband sanded, repainted and distressed it. (Man Of The Year over here.) Still a few more things we want to do: new light fixture, reupholster those chairs, a little something on each side of the window, and maybe a patterned rug? I don't know yet. But I am so pleased!
Lastly, and this is just a little section in the dining room we're working on. You can't really see it in any of the other photos, but I sure am obsessed with it.
Until my next round of remodeling.. ;)
